Work From Home As A Part Time Expert Reader


This opportunity is for residents of Illinois, Indiana or Wisconsin who like to read. This is a part time job that involves screening online condolence messages in accordance with established guidelines. Positions start at $10/hour.

Legacy.com hosts online obituaries for newspapers. Each obituary includes an online Guest Book where friends and family can submit messages to express their condolences or share memories. The primary task of this position is to read these messages before they are posted online to ensure that inappropriate or offensive material does not appear in our Guest Books.

The ideal candidate has strong reading and decision-making skills, is self-motivated, fluent with email and the Internet, and has a 4-year degree or equivalent.
